Outback Arts
Overview
The Outback Arts Gallery is a non-profit organisation located on the main street of Coonamble. It provides local and regional artists with the opportunity to exhibit and sell their work in-store and online.
Displayed in the gallery are artworks as well as a wide range of art supplies. Outback Arts is one of 15 Regional Arts Development Organisations in New South Wales, servicing the seven contributing local government areas of Bourke, Brewarrina, Bogan, Cobar, Coonamble, Walgett and Warren.
